I have a plethora of diaper boxes. They so happen to fit on the top of my laundry room cabinets. The top of the cabinets have been a place to stuff things that have no home. And it's gotten UGLY.
I wanted to see what I could do with the boxes to gussy them up. I just grabbed what I had. Which just happened to be a skirt printed pattern, a stapler, some fabric glue, and some clearance Christmas ribbon.
I just present style wrapped the box and tucked the ends through the handle holes. Then slashed a big X for my opening. I stuffed the leftover X down and went to town with a stapler.
To finish it up, I added the ribbon to the top.
Looking back, this could of been done smarter and less messy. But Let's Make It Now is just that. Sometimes you just gotta do it right then, you know?
I did not put it in the laundry room because I want more to match- that will be a different post. It is still serving it's purpose as a clutter catcher!

Let's Make It Now: Shopping Bag Holder
Let's make it right now! Pesky shopping bags all over in the cabinet?
Grab a coffee can, a knife, and shopping bags. Cut a big X in the lid and stuff your bags in. All done and a little more organization. Yay!
A nice coat of spray paint could pretty this up quick, but its too cold here.
I'm off to make another for the upstairs bathroom and one for the van! So handy and my coffee can stash in use instead of waiting clutter. Double whammy!
